Upcoming interactive installation

ISEA Bright Future is a kinetic sculpture about communal electricity generation and cooperation in biological organisms.

ISEA Bright Future uses custom 5 modified stationary
bicycles on training stands in a semi-circle to generate audiovisual
rhythms that audiences may actively "play" as an audiovisual instrument
that visually models this and sonically models this.
The interactive installation explores embodied energy and ecological
sustainability - both as it is powered solely by participants' peddling
and through biomimesis of bioluminescene, especially that of fireflies
and how they synchronise their flasing. The title is pronounced "I See A
Bright Future" as it explores the role of cooperation and negotiation
in producing a future that will be dominated by how 'brightness' (ie
lights/energy) is produced. ISEA Bright Future is a companion piece to Wodak's installation Facing Futures Free From Fear, about speculative futures and defuturing in relation to climate change, on at the same time in Sydney (May 22 - June 14).
